I&#...I think you need to listen to your characters. I'm just wrapping up my novel and realize I probably should've done XYZ in it, which would be a massive rewrite. But if that's what it takes to make the story the best it can be, I've got to do it. You have to always strive to make your project the best. That may include several rewrites. But do what your guts telling you to do. Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7692059176207183103.post-66442412097240230752015-03-05T09:55:17.577-08:002015-03-05T09:55:17.577-08:00My WIP's are all part of the same story, so wa...My WIP's are all part of the same story, so walking away isn't an option - but sometimes I start a new story within the story just for a break and then go back to it :)<br />Suzanne<br />IWSG Co-host in March :)Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15210964582774377295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7692059176207183103.post-39178180731473229612015-03-04T20:44:39.186-08:002015-03-04T20:44:39.186-08:00Let's see...Book the First was (is) odd. It...Let's see...Book the First was (is) odd. It's very much about me and my college experience and what I was going through, having come home after being away for school. The one after that was a historical romance and I was trying SO hard...I mean, I read them all the time, surely I could write one? I just through all kinds of things in there. The paranormal story was more serious, more tumultuous. And then I wrote The Keegans of Banner's Edge. It's not a fluffy story. <br /><br />The new one is settling into messy middle ness, but I'm excited about what's coming up and I know there's a lot to fix, but it might not be as messy as the last one was and I look forward to that. <br />Michelle Athyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01143019809716476693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7692059176207183103.post-67590992003333707072015-03-04T16:12:16.184-08:002015-03-04T16:12:16.184-08:00Wow...I've never thought of it like this befor...Wow...I've never thought of it like this before. My first book was all fun and chaos. When I realized it sucked, it was really hard because before that, I thought I could just sit down and spit out whatever came to mind. I didn't know there were so many other layers involved! <br /><br />But we do have to think about whether the story we want to work on is something we need to push through or walk away from...do a gut check, you know. Because I think we know deep down exactly what we need to do. :) krystal janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02115542477066959046noreply@blogger.com
